Christmas Tree Lights on Donegal sock with multicoloured nep. Would you like your skein free? Well, if you buy an Advent Calendar this week I will put a 100g skein of Christmas Tree Lights in with it for free. You don’t need a code, I’ll automatically do this until the end of November. There are also multiple options to pay in instalments, which are free to you as I pay the additional associated fees. I hope you enjoy your colourful seasonal fibre crafts! 💕 #mothyandthesquid #yarn #yarnvent

Advent Calendars are tricky as people dislike “too early” but blame for “too late”. It’s been a big risk this year but I have seen how many new cars are on the road and new clothes are on the people so I decided to hope that enough folk would like and share for me to find new audiences, because that’s really the key thing to keeping a small business growing in this economy. Thank you.

Sometimes folk ask me for ideas as to how to re-use the bags from their Advent Calendar. I often suggest making a calendar for someone else. If you don’t think you could manage 24 small gifts then why not put kind messages on pieces of paper? It would be a great way to show a dear friend or family member how much you care. I think it would be fun to put left-over yarn or other craft supplies in them and trade with a pal. #mothyandthesquid #yarn #knitting #crochet #adventcalendar #yarnvent

After a month of working on them, Advent Calendars are now ready to ship. The hours that go into these is immense, perhaps fifty a week in addition to my usual shop work. It will all be worth it for people to enjoy unwrapping a new and fun colour every day during advent. #mothyandthesquid #yarn #knitting #crochet #yarnvent #yarnventcalendar

Twelve Days of Christmas! Two options for 4ply/sock miniskein gift sets: 10g and 20g. Both create a bright beautiful rainbow and have a mix of speckled and variegated colourways.

As a special for this year only I have trialled a DK option. It’s all-speckled and is presented in rainbow order.

Advent Calendar teaser: this photo has been through six filters so whatever you think you can tell about the colours (apart from their being many and beautiful) is incorrect. You can still sign up for first refusal via last year’s listing. Now that everything is dyed, it should take about three weeks to do all the real work required to produce the finished product. #mothyandthesquid #yarn #knitting #crochet #yarnvent #yarnventcalendar #miniskeins

Progress on the Twelve Days of Christmas mini skein sets. I have used larger, printed labels on the tags this year to help folk who might find my writing difficult to read. I’m trying to balance the hand-made aesthetic with accessibility. What do you think?

Preparation for the Twelve Days of Christmas miniskein gift sets is well underway. It’s very slow careful work and I’m doing it all alone. I’m hoping to 20g ones will be available to those on the list later this week and the 10g ones next week.

It’s here!
My mom has sent a yarn December countdown the last couple of years, this year’s is bird themed. I saw the dyer Goldfinch Fibers on Etsy a while back and I’m very curious to see what is inside the informative little packages. It looks so bright and cheery!
